No money is worth VCT.
I spent all day fixing the rear brakes on my El Camino. When I pulled the drum all the brake parts fell onto the ground. It was a real bear. It took me all day to figure out how to put it all back together. I feel i am now an expert on drum brakes. I had to get this fixed so I could get to your house.
Whoever designed drum brakes was either a genius or a sadist.

$3600 for a 3rd rate job? Can you say Hack?
And you're as intuitive as a dyslexic labradoodle. Do the job correctly or walk away.. Since you obviously lack the skills to do it properly or sell the job that needs to be done it's going to look like a dog's breakfast. Don't shoot the messenger because you don't like the message.

vct isnt difficult it just has zero shortcuts to make it look good..
If you're both on the same page walking in
you might be on the same page walking out

Dude. No one told me. Jeeze. Well at least it motivated me to buy a better sleeping bag and fix the brakes on my car.

Because he did it. Wait until he finds out a so called professional can't do it any better. Barter is the same as cash. What's he going to say the next day when he sees there is no difference and he's out $3600 in tuition fees?

or just shitty communicators who are projecting your inability to pre-qualify on to me.
We're not setting up a hack job whixh it appears you may end up with.You'reting solid advice from people that know about what you're attempting to do . Where you go with it is up to you. At the very least burnish it because sure as shite the little bit of gleam will come off . How do I know this? Experience.ls a great teacher.

I like doing vct but just don't like the pay.
Scrub with tile cleaner and malgrit brush then hit it with floor wand. Throw on a couple coats if sealer wax and call it good.
You're nuts if you don't recoat it with at least 2 coats.

Just one of the reasons he doesnt want it recoated is the massive amount of dust (and hair) up above on the exposed HVAC..

He could fix the majority of the hair and crap in the finish without completely stripping the floor all the way down but it’s still a lot of work.
From the way most are responding to this thread, most don’t understand how floor finish actually goes down.
Most floor finishes don’t actually go down and adhere like one would consider individual coats of a coating. Instead they build upon the previous solids from the previous coat or “layer”, with a bit more solids.
You don’t get good build until you get at least 4 costs.
